It's like he's trying to cycle as much patients as possible meaning more $$$ per hour. Was injected with steroids but only got temporary relief for my issue the 1st time. When i queried about going through with another set of injections, he became a bit irritated and asked me if I want help from him because he know what he's doing (or something along those lines lol). Got a second set of injections, but this time nothing happened. After that I stopped with zero results.
Also went to Dr Colin Furlonge at Gulf View Medical. He's nice but you don't get that individual attention. Just watches the site of the issue on your skin, writing a prescription a few seconds later and in less than 5 minutes you are out the door. I'm guessing the shorter the time you see the patient, the more you are able to see per hour meaning more $$$. Steroids also but tablets instead. Next thing you know some enzymes in my liver became elevated because of the steroid use. As i stopped the tablets, plus a bottle of Neutrosec, my liver was back to normal.

he really does have an attitude when you question his treatment because you dont see results...i think its because of old age though

I know him personally but never had the joy of visiting him in office. I think he feels insulted whenever his tried and true methods are questioned.
I know men who take accutane when we were in form 6 and thing, prescribed by him. Liver function tests and visits ever so often. Men face get clean but they bawling with their industrial grade lip balm. Rell people hop off of it as soon as the depressive/suicidal thoughts started to creep in as a side effect.

I’m now very embarrassed to wear shorts, dresses and sleeveless clothing because of the large red marks now on the skin. Prior to this flare up though, I visited Miami in July and got a minor rash that went away but when I returned home it resurfaced and manifested on different parts of the body.
Basanta took a skin sample for which I’m awaiting results and yes I’ll have to pay for revisitation fee of $500 for whatever news awaits me.
Really looking for something to clear up the redness
Why didn't you just see a Dr in Miami?krisbell wrote:I visited Dr. Basanta last week and results are visible, my only concern with my newly diagnosed Atopic Dermatitis is that the redness from the irritated areas are still visible.
